Reviews of Lumière Dorée

Uber-clean white floral, which begs to be reincarnated as a spritzer served in a pub on a hot day as well as a perfume. A single minded orange-blossom with its green facets bringing cool shade to the delicate honey that is at the centre of its scent profile, a dab of bitter orange to tease out the fruity aspects of the blossom, and projecting musk a go-go. Normally it’s the kind of thing that either makes me bored or run with horror. But here it’s executed with panache and energy, transitioning from the sparkle at the start to the downy drydown without putting a foot wrong. It’s gussied up cologne water for sure, but when the results are so perfectly pitched, I really don’t care.
